Don’t fall for the ‘Incompetence’ message they’re trying to push to distract from ‘Corruption’. Nigeria’s largest-ever Social Welfare Prog @NSIP_NG, 6 million new TaxPayers, new $650m Infra Fund, attracting billions of $$$ in Agric Investments. Ain’t definition of Incompetence

Let’s break it down a little bit. The @NSIP_NG: Nigeria has never had a more ambitious Social Welfare Programme, targeting the most vulnerable. 500,000 @npower_ng, more than 8 million kids for @NHGSFP, more than 300,000 households for @HUPcct, and 2m for @Trader_Moni by year-end.

Infrastructure: 2 major rail lines COMPLETED between 2015 & 2018, & during a recession. Abuja—Kaduna & Abuja Metro. No rail project completed between 1999 and 2015.

Another 2 standard-gauge Rail projects in progress. Ajaokuta-Warri and Lagos-Ibadan. I’ve visited both. See my TL.

When you say CORRUPTION and they say INCOMPETENCE, always remember that you’re right about the Corruption and they’re wrong about the Incompetence. If anyone’s looking for a COMBO of corruption and incompetence, they’re FAR more likely to find it between 1999–2015 than 2015–2018.

2017 Global Terrorism Index reports that deaths from Boko Haram violence dropped 80% in 2016. Is it tragic that Nigerians are still being killed by Boko Haram. Certainly. Are we where we were in 2013/14? Certainly not. Ask the people in the NE/Kano/Abuja
reliefweb.int/sites/reliefwe…

GLOBAL TERRORISM INDEX 2017: “The largest improvement occurred in Nigeria where terrorism deaths attributed to Boko Haram decreased by 80 per cent in 2016.” reliefweb.int/sites/reliefwe…

How about Communal Clashes and Herdsmen/Farmer Violence? Good question. Btw 2001–2004, an est. 50,000 Nigerians died in Plateau ALONE, from clashes: news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/37…

Should even a single Nigerian have to die? NO. Should we acknowledge when FEWER Nigerians are dying? YES.

More than a dozen comatose Fertiliser Blending Plants revived since 2017, under @MBuhari’s Presidential Fertilizer Initiative. @PremiumTimesng has told the fascinating story of the one in Ebonyi State. Read it. It’s jobs, it’s Fertilizer, it’s agriculture

“Last year the company joined the Presidential Fertiliser Initiative (PFI) of the FG and since then the company has grown through leaps and bounds and is now making serious impact, not only in Ebonyi State but in the South-east and South South.”

The one in Ebonyi, estab 14 years ago. Collapsed long ago due to competition from imported fertiliser. The one in Auchi, commissioned early 2000s. When I visited I was told it never worked for a day, they used imported bags at the commissioning, LOL. Both now running, since 2017

Keep the main message in mind:

1. Don’t fall for the ‘Incompetence’ message they’re trying to push to distract from the lost ‘Corruption’ argument.

2. There is great evidence to prove that 1999–2015 will always defeat (and with big ‘gap’) 2015–2018 in the Incompetence Olympics.

I also don’t think anyone should allow PDP to run on ‘Manifesto’ or ‘Promise’. Nah. Too late. Let the newbies do that.

If APC is going to run on its record in the last 3 years then it only makes sense to ask PDP to run on its own 16-year record.

Let Record tackle Record, innit?

This thread from a few weeks ago. For those who say ‘Corruption doesn’t really matter’: twitter.com/toluogunlesi/s…

@MBuhari Admin inherited >$6bn in Cash Call debts to Oil Companies. Even through the oil boom we didn’t pay & we didn’t care. The Oil Cos suffered mostly in silence. Buhari paid the cash call.

Speaking with oil industry friends last night I was reminded of progress made re cash calls since 2016. Buhari admin inherited more than $6 billion in unpaid cash calls. Negotiated with IOCs to reduce it to $5 billion and agreed payment plan. In addition prompt future payment of cash call obligations.

It’s a big deal. Not only have the backlog been taken care of through the payment plan but IOCs are no longer owed FG cash call obligations. And the IOCs are extremely pleased about that.

The country chair of Shell Nigeria in June 2018 said “For the first time we finished a year without NNPC owing cash calls. I have a CFO in Shell who was here five years ago and just returned he says he cannot believe what is happening.

Don’t fall for the ‘Incompetence’ message they’re trying to push to distract from ‘Corruption’.

Ask the PENSIONERS that @PTADNigeria is remembering & restoring dignity to — Biafran Police Officers, Delta Steel, Nigeria Airways, etc — ask them if they think Buhari is incompetent.

Ask the people of the North, who saw Mubi/Kano/Potiskum/Abuja succumb to the madness of B/Haram, and Borno State reduced to Maiduguri its capital. Schools closed for 2 years, flights halted, Sallah and Christmas celebrations suspended. Ask them if they think PMB is incompetent.

The $650m Presidential Infrastructure Devpt Fund is not ‘Manifesto’ or ‘Promise’. It’s reality. In Q3 2018 it began to FUND the construction of the Second Niger Bridge & the reconstruction of the Abuja—Kano Highway. It’s also rescuing the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway from fatal ‘CUTS’

Under the previous admin the Governors fought FG to the Supreme Court, over money. Crippled the Sovereign Wealth Fund. Reason: Lack of trust.

Since 2015, under PMB/PYO the Governors (incl opposition party Govs) have fuss-lessly approved a total of US$1.15 BILLION for the SWF.

If you’re going to be an opposition Governor, you certainly want to be one under PMB/PYO. Listen to how the Govs of Cross River, Ebonyi speak fondly of the President. Look at the collaborations btw the FG and Abia State, in Ariaria Market Electrification, Enyimba City, NPower.

Watch the convivial atmosphere at NEC Meetings. Govs are not looking at @ProfOsinbajo & thinking this guy wants to cheat us. There’s neither APC nor PDP in those meetings. Contrast with when Aso Rock main work was to humiliate Govs. Or when Govs Forum scattered cos PDP fighting

Don’t fall for the incompetence message, they’re trying to distract from corruption being the albatross destroying the economy.

Like someone said “ God forbid that we move from Buhari to Atiku. That is retrogression. We must not allow this to happen. NEVER!

We will be holding your keyboard responsible for this trash you have just spilled. If there is any word to replace corruption and glaring impunity is Government, look no further than the acronyms PDP. That is the training school of the present breeds of politician we have now.

Op God bless u

Wailers are simply brain dead and full of hate

Where are your facts , and truth?

Only that when Keyamo was given the platform to tell Nigerians about his principal's achievements, he suddenly had brain seizure.

Hence he went to his comfort zone which is insults and personal attacks.
